Hold 'em for Hunger 2007:
Hold 'Em For Hunger 2007 will go down as this tournament's monumental shift from successful to legendary. Nearly doubling participation at 510 players, HEFH 2007 played host to players flying in from as far away as New York City. Las Vegas and Atlantic City continue to be reeled in and 2008 will certainly show HEFH as the supreme force in charity poker tournaments. Prizes given out included a 42" HDTV, a FULL-SIZE Drink-Vending Machine, a Vegas-grade Slot Machine, a $400 Travel Voucher to STA Travel, and tons more. Almost $6,000 was raised for Nourish International and the Great Hall was filled beyond capacity. This seismic upgrade for HEFH is sure to launch next year's preparation into full-swing very soon. Please visit the pictures to see the excitement first-hand and also a big thanks to all people affiliated with this amazing tournament!

Hold 'em for Hunger 2006:
Continuing the trend of success, Hold 'em for Hunger 2006 had more sponsors and raised more money than the previous year, making it one of the nation's most highly profitable charity poker tournaments--over $5,700!!  Apple Computer, Cardplayer Magazine, World Tavern Poker Tour, STA Travel, and poker legend Phil Gordon were among some of last year's top sponsors. The tournament winner took home a 42" DLP HDTV worth more than $2,000! HEFH '06 even featured a rock-paper-scissors tournament for the first 52-players to get knocked out, the winner receiving an iPod Nano.  Again, a great time was had by all!
